Varun Dhawan's Ripped Jeans Are So Indian Mom-Proof, She'll Love You For Wearing It

If you're a resident of this country, sharing space with a typical 'Indian' mom, then you're aware of her hatred for 'phatela' jeans. She was neither born with an affinity to like them, an ability to fancy them over time or with the toleration for the mere sight of a pair. Ripped jeans are an Indian mother's biggest kryptonite — one sight of them and she'd lose her sh*t. And no matter how many decades they've yelled at us, we haven't seemed to change ourselves. We love the rips, and we cannot lie.

To be frank, one of the biggest pet peeves of an Indian mother (with respect to ripped jeans), is the fact that they look supremely shabby. One, because rips do look savaged (read: shabby), and two, because that's the look of this denim hybrid. Ask Kanye West. And depending on where you're headed in the day (or night), it does have a way of shining bright.

Let's tell you why Varun's ripped jeans are problem-solvers:

1. For one, Dhawan's ripped jeans are maintaining consistency with the debauchery. There's a pattern the brand has followed here, resulting in a much cleaner (and organised) view of sight. Notice how every rip is cut out very evenly and not representing manual work. They're ripped jeans, courtesy: a denim genius.

2. Unlike most ripped jeans, there's no element of distress in Varun's jeans here. Which, if visible, could have completely rummaged the look of this pair, making it the official piece of hatred for every Indian mother.

3. Like the detailing on the jeans weren't enough, a bad fit could have ruined this further. But thanks to the side-split on the hem, Varun's denim pair looks quite well-fitted. Plus, has been paired with Chelsea boots. That's adding a lot of polish, finesse and wealth to this outfit.
